The Shun Elite knives are handcrafted in Seki City, Japan, center of the ancient tradition of samurai sword-making. They are made of an exotic powdered steel called G2. Every element used to make the steel has been evenly blended, then pressurized and heated into a dense alloy, eliminating imperfections and weak spots. The set consists of a nice variety of cutlery, and an attractive bamboo wood block is included. These knives are the result of superb metal technology combined with Japanese functionality and beauty. The handles are stunningly designed with slim rings of copper and brass, and inlaid with a Japanese symbol.
The knife blades are smooth and intensely sharp; the edges will remain that way longer than most others available today. They add strength, corrosion resistance and flexibility to the knives while providing top cutting performance. They will effortlessly cut through almost anything, and the black laminated hardwood handles provide a safe, comfortable grip because they are ergonomically formed.
The Shun Elite knives have a limited lifetime warranty, but if properly cared for, they will give decades of superb service. Hand washing is recommended. These knives are excellent for the price. The state-of-the-art technology involved in creating these knives means that they are far superior to other cutlery sets of a similar price range. They come in gift boxes and can be presented at any special gathering.
